[Properties] This product is a light yellow-green clear liquid.
Pharmacology and ToxicologyPharmacological effects
Levofloxacin is the L-body of ofloxacin. Its antibacterial activity is about twice that of ofloxacin. Its main mechanism of action is to inhibit bacterial DNA gyrase (bacterial topoisomerase) activity and hinder bacterial DNA replication To achieve antibacterial effect.
This product has the characteristics of wide antibacterial spectrum and strong antibacterial effect. It is against most Enterobacteriaceae bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Serratia, Proteus, Shigella, Salmonella, Citrobacter, Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and other gram-negative bacteria have strong antibacterial activity. It also has a good antibacterial effect on some methicillin-sensitive glucococcus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus hemolyticus and other gram-positive bacteria, as well as Legionella, Mycoplasma, and Chlamydia, but it has a good antibacterial effect on anaerobic bacteria and enterococci. The effect is poor.
Toxicology
Repeated dosing toxicity: Rats were given levofloxacin doses of 50, 200, 800 mg/kg orally for 4 consecutive weeks, only the 800 mg/kg treatment group showed a decrease in neutrophils and an increase in bone marrow M/E; histopathology can be seen Mild degeneration of the joint surface of the limb. Rhesus monkeys were administered orally for 4 weeks, and the animals in the 100 mg/kg group showed salivation, diarrhea, mild body weight, and decreased urine pH. After oral administration of rats for 26 weeks, animals in the 80 and 320 mg/kg dose groups experienced salivation and increased urine pH. The amount of feces in the 320 mg/kg group increased, and the goblet cells of the cecal mucosa became enlarged. When rhesus monkeys were administered orally for 26 weeks, there were no obvious toxic reactions at the doses of 10, 25, and 62.5 mg/kg.
Effects on articular cartilage: young and 3-4 week old rats, 4-month-old harrier orally administered for 7 days, when the dose is above 300mg/kg for rats and 10mg/kg for harrier, joints appear Cartilage lesions, and joint toxicity is easily found in young and young harriers. A 13-month-old dog, orally administered for 7 days, showed very mild joint toxicity at a dose of 40 mg/kg. However, an 18-month-old dog was intravenously injected for 14 days at a dose of 30 mg/kg without joint toxicity.
Reproductive toxicity: When the oral dose reaches 360mg/kg before pregnancy and early pregnancy in rats, it has no effect on the reproductive ability of female and male animals and the fetus. When administered to rats during the organogenesis period, at a dose of 90 mg/kg, there is no significant effect on the fetus and newborn. When rabbits were administered 50mg/kg orally, there was no embryonic, fetal lethality, fetal growth retardation, and no teratogenic effects. When the oral administration of rats reached 360 mg/kg during the perinatal and lactation period, there was no significant effect on the delivery, lactation and birth of the animals.
Phototoxicity: Long-wavelength ultraviolet (320-400nm) irradiation was used to conduct a phototoxicity study with the change in the thickness of the mouse auricle as an indicator. As a result, no obvious abnormal changes were seen when the oral dose reached 200mg/kg.
[Pharmacokinetics] A constant rate of intravenous drip of levofloxacin lactate injection 0.2g (calculated as C18H20FN3O4) in healthy people in China, the drip time is 1 hour, and the peak blood concentration (Cmax) is 3.40 (2.8~4.0) μg/ml After 12 hours, the plasma concentration is 0.55(0.3~0.7)μg/ml, the elimination half-life (t1/2β) is about 5.2 hours, and the elimination rate (CL) is about 11.2L/h. There is still a lack of human pharmacokinetic data for intravenous infusion of levofloxacin lactate injection 0.3g.
According to foreign data, the pharmacokinetic parameters of a single intravenous injection of levofloxacin 300 mg and oral administration of the same dose are similar.
In the multi-dose study (300 mg twice a day intravenously for 6 days), the plasma concentration reached a steady state within 24-48 hours. The peak plasma concentrations after the first and last dose were 5.35 and 6.12μg/ml, respectively, indicating that there was no significant accumulation.
Levofloxacin is widely distributed in body tissues. The original drug is mainly excreted in the urine. Within 48 hours after oral administration, the urine excretion of the original drug accounts for about 87% of the dose; the excretion of the feces within 72 hours is less than 4% of the dose; About 5% of the drug is excreted in the urine in the form of inactive metabolites.
In patients with impaired renal function, the clearance rate of levofloxacin decreases and the elimination half-life is prolonged. To avoid accumulation of the drug, dosage adjustments should be made. Hemodialysis and continuous peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) do not affect the elimination of levofloxacin from the body.
[Indications] This product is suitable for the following moderate and severe infections caused by sensitive bacteria:
Respiratory system infection: acute bronchitis, acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis, diffuse bronchiolitis, bronchiectasis combined infection, pneumonia, tonsillitis (peritonsillar abscess);
Urinary system infections: pyelonephritis, complicated urinary tract infections, etc.;
Reproductive system infections: acute prostatitis, acute epididymitis, uterine cavity infection, uterine adnexitis, pelvic inflammatory disease (metronidazole can be combined with suspected anaerobic infection);
Skin and soft tissue infections: infectious impetigo, cellulitis, lymphatic (nodular) inflammation, subcutaneous abscess, perianal abscess, etc.;
